“Africa needs back its economy, its politics, its culture, its languages and all its patriotic writers.”―

I’m always thinking what’s next for me? Ten years ago, I had a plan to get to where I wanted to be; I visualised it. I’m so confident, so sure things will get better. I

operate in the future; I see it now. Speaking of that future, the first half of my career is done.

In the second half of my career, I want to impact more people and be in a more influential position, making key decisions around the world. Right now, with the boys so young, family will be my focus. But after that I want to reach wider. That’s why I left my comfort zone. In ten year’s time, I want to be in a room with world leaders, changing the narrative. It could be through media and marketing, that’d be fine, or it could be via an alternative path. I just know I have something inside me that can make a difference, and I intend to make it happen.

The African Trilogy

15,000.00

Chinua Achebe is considered the father of modern African literature, the writer who “opened the magic casements of African fiction.” The African Trilogy–comprised of Things Fall Apart, Arrow of God, and No Longer at Ease–is his magnum opus. In these masterly novels, Achebe brilliantly imagines the lives of three generations of an African community as their world is upended by the forces of colonialism from the first arrival of the British to the waning days of empire.

The trilogy opens with the groundbreaking Things Fall Apart, the tale of Okonkwo, a hero in his village, whose clashes with missionaries–coupled with his own tragic pride–lead to his fall from grace. Arrow of God takes up the ongoing conflict between continuity and change as Ezeulu, the headstrong chief priest, finds his authority is under threat from rivals and colonial functionaries. But he believes himself to be untouchable and is determined to lead his people, even if it is towards their own destruction. Finally, in No Longer at Ease, Okonkwo’s grandson, educated in England, returns to a civil-service job in Lagos, only to see his morality erode as he clings to his membership in the ruling elite.

Drawing on the traditional Igbo tales of Achebe’s youth, The African Trilogy is a literary landmark, a mythic and universal tale of modern Africa. As Toni Morrison wrote, “African literature is incomplete and unthinkable without the works of Chinua Achebe. For passion, intellect and crystalline prose, he is unsurpassed.”
